My condolences to the victim and everyone involved.
Goes to show just how stupid our traffic law enforcement is. I get fined for straying slightly above the speed limit while on the overtaking lane. While some punk drives on public roads like he owns it and nothing happens to him. Same thing with fuckwits who drink and drive and the same with that imbecile in the BMW that satria_95 mentioned.
Monitoring speeds and speed limits are pants. They don't work, apart from profitting from the summons. What you need is for the policemen to patrol our roads and highways to catch idiots who can't drive properly. Not deploy speed traps to catch Hj Ahmad doing 120km/h on the North South highway whilst going back to see his grandchildren during Raya. Stupid system, championed by fucking idiots.
A damn good one, silverfish. Great example you have there.
The keyword is CONSISTENCY.
If they really do it all the time (on patrol for 'real' traffic reason that is), or make their presence known, I believe most drivers will behave. People do it because they know they can get away with it.
They fine selected people, at selected time, and let go off easily of selected people.
Just my 2 cents.
